The reported tally puts the value of Tether USDt (USDT) and USDT0 held at decentralized finance (DeFi) venues at $5.8 billion. Aave accounted for 66.4% of that amount, the largest share among the venues counted.
The figure covers deposits of both tokens across multiple venues. It describes Aave’s share of that two-token total, not its share of all deposits in DeFi.
USDT is widely used as a liquidity source in DeFi. Aave is a crypto lending and borrowing platform.
